I love all of the festive activities that happen around Christmas time. This month we've had fun going to a few of Hallie's dance performances and participating in activites at her school.

Hallie is singing the Hanukkah song(not the Adam Sandler version) with her class at school. For their culminating activity to their world religions unit, we planned activities that celebrated Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. I was in charge of helping with Christianity. We frosted Christmas tree sugar cookies, acted out the nativity, read the night before Christmas, and made wish lists for Santa. For Judaism, they made a star of David ornament, learned a game to play with a dreidle and sampled Jewish foods. For Islam, they learned another game and sampled spicy middle eastern food which Hallie did not like.

Here is Hallie and her friends acting out the nativity.
